@sschmoelzl Indeed - lets hope we start to see greater diversity in awardees sooner rather than later....

Congratulations to Donna Strickland - only the 3rd woman to ever receive the #NobelPrize in #Physics

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

“We need to celebrate women physicists because they’re out there… I’m honoured to be one of those women," says Donna Strickland.

She becomes the third woman to receive the #NobelPrize in Physics, joining Maria Goeppert-Mayer (1963) and Marie Curie (1903). Congratulations!

[The Nobel Prize @NobelPrize]

BREAKING NEWS
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the #NobelPrize in Physics 2018 “for groundbreaking inventions in the field of laser physics” with one half to Arthur Ashkin and the other half jointly to Gérard Mourou and Donna Strickland.

Ever heard that there are less women than men in #STEM because "men are just better in those areas"? New study shows boys and girls have equal aptitude in STEM subjects - it's systematic biases and social stereotypes that drive #genderinequality in #science

[Cosmos @CosmosMagazine]

For years the male dominance of STEM-related careers has been explained away as women having less aptitude for the relevant subjects. https://t.co/IQnAFUV5aH

Many people probably don't realise the politics and arguments that go in behind the scenes in regards to the order of authors on journal articles. Gretchen Kiser argues for more team work and collaboration in #science https://t.co/UFo83NdJbA
